Last week, NFL nerds were greeted with the most exciting of revelations — the 2016 schedule! Yes, that beautiful time of year when everyone can start assigning their teams victories like five months before the season starts.
Browns fans, however, probably had a little trouble with that exercise, as their schedule looks a little something like this:
See you on Sept. 18th, #DawgPound!

So how many wins can the Browns tally here? Maybe they luck into three (Dolphins, Titans, Bills)?
ESPN’s Pat McManamon is far less optimistic than me as he dropped a 1-15 season prediction:
Where will the wins come? Find them. There is no opponent on the schedule that says “Browns win.” In fact, no other NFL nation reporter is picking their team to lose to the Browns. That puts 0-16 on the table. Yes, the draft is ahead, and the team has time to improve. But today, that’s the view of the Browns. The only win is projected based on law of averages. They have to win one game, right?. — Pat McManamon
But there is one thing Pat can’t predict for each game: the starting quarterback.
@nickcleveland come on man … that’s asking the impossible
